Lyrics The Golden Palominos - Curses

This is noise, this is curse, this is talk,
this is red, this is pale, this is ache,
this is last, this is slow, this is shock,
this is thrown, this is fire, this is break,
this is snow, this is witch, this is spell,
this is cut, this is final, this is fine,
this is moon, this is tide, this is hell,
this is hers, this is theirs, this is mine.

Feels like storms, feels like thunder
feels like storms, feels like I'm going under.
Here comes the slow going, here comes the pain
I fade out like a ghost, and run out like the rain.

All you know of heroines is what you read
sometimes we burn sometimes we bleed.

There's a red red howling, down my dark hall
I was everything you wanted, now I'm nothing at all.

Nail my knees together, this time it's not about you
you have no power here, you don't know what I need
I'm giving in, I'll get there in a box
turn away, now let your legends bleed.

Drag a slow line down my leg
to my mouth from my thigh
show it to the police and the priests
so you can say that you tried.

I'm half alive, barely worth keeping
I rule the bed, soon I'll wake up sleeping.
Curses....curses.

This time it's different, this time it's close
this time it's between the spine and the skin.
